Retro 603 clone

Been seeing some Retro pics and decided to grab a kit before they are gone.
Nodak M16A1 retro lower with all the markings from Ident Markings.Got tired of looking for a barrel and reprofiled a Colt '97 A2 1/7 .Got barrel parked and FSB mounted over the rainy weekend and assembled the bits.

Dang,How about the sunscreen...er...a Sunburn Preventative Preparation (cream paste) and Insect Repellent ,75% DEET in 25% Denatured Ethanol ?
Date on bottle says Dec 1966,I just looked at some Deep Woods Off and it was just the opposite 25% DEET and 75% "other ingredients".
Hitest Bug Juice ! Don't call the EPA on me!

Great stuff for getting the leaches off just before dark thirty.

Viper Dude. Some may have remained.
But they got rid of those damn prongs, by the time I crossed the pond.
Nothing like walking around with a pitch fork in front of you.
Darn things got stuck on everything.
